I'm a 26-year-old novelist, a small-town Southern girl, a history nerd, a dedicated fangirl, and the eldest of nine kids. But most importantly, I'm a servant of Jesus Christ and seek to glorify him in everything I do!

We're back into the swing of things here at my house: my siblings' "summer holiday" is over and they're back to school, which means I'm back to my old writing schedule. I finished my fanfic novelette a couple of weeks ago, just in time to turn my full attention to a new and very intriguing idea… Continue reading TV Review: “All Creatures Great and Small”

"I don't want to see Mission Impossible in the theater," my dad announced yesterday afternoon as we strode into the theater to see Christopher Robin, passing up all the various posters on the wall as we went.

I always said I wanted to finish out Peter Capaldi's run as the Twelfth Doctor--and I'm proud to announce I finally worked up the courage to do the thing: I've seen Doctor Who: Series 10*.

"A thrilling and inspiring true story begins at the precipice of World War II as, within days of becoming Prime… Continue reading Movie Review: “Darkest Hour”

(*excitedly bangs a spoon on the bottom of a pot*) Guys, guess what? I finished the second draft of Lionhearted!!! On May 14 I wrote, and I quote: "I hope to be finished by the end of summer. Ambitious much? Maybe. Lionhearted has thirty chapters and I’ve already edited eighteen of them in four months, so it’s possible. At… Continue reading Lionhearted, Second Draft: COMPLETE!

This week I was going to do a review of Darkest Hour, the most recent (and wonderful) Winston Churchill biopic starring Gary Oldman...but I used up all my mental energy editing the very long Chapter 26 of Lionhearted this morning, so I'm going to excuse myself from that blogpost this week. I got a lot of other things… Continue reading A List of Accomplishments

Eva, author of the delightful Coffee, Classics, & Craziness blog, recently tagged me in this fun blogging challenge! Each query is based on a song from The Greatest Showman. Thanks so much, Eva! ~’The Greatest Show’: Name a book that’s as entertaining as a circus I know this sounds crazy, but The Complete Tales of Winnie-The-Pooh* by A.A.… Continue reading “The Greatest Showman” Book Tag

Hello again, one and all! I'm back to blogging after returning home from our family vacation to Georgia and South Carolina! For her 50th birthday my mom decided she wanted to challenge herself with the "Three miles up, three miles down" hike up Mount Currahee in Toccoa, Georgia.
